On the mend




I was finally up and around and out of bed today. I feel so much better. The ribs are still tender and I'm not lifting anything(poor Hannah) but we are on the mend. Thanks for all of your kind words. Yesterday Jason took Hannah to her Cardio Apt. I told him what to put on her and he was teasing me about her looking too dressed up for the doctors. When he got home he said he was being attacked by people telling him what an adorable little girl he had. (I know he loved every minute of it. Ha!) We couldn't be more pleased with her appointment yesterday. I feel like I'm constantly saying that and afraid one visit the streak will be broke. However God has remained faithful and I need to be faithful to trust in his plan. They did an echo and the sweet tech(who is also from china LOVE her) told Jason that her heart and arteries looked even better than before. The medication is working beautiful to keep the valves from leaking. Jason asked Dr. Chang if we were still on schedule to have the second surgery when Hannah turns four. He replied "with how well she is doing I would say possibly six or longer. If she continues to do this well the longer they can wait the better for her". Her oxygen rates are in the low 90's if they were in the low 80's they would want to go in sooner. However they couldn't ask for any better. I know this is confusing. It is to us most times. The bottom line is for now she is still Amazing these doctors and doing so well and this momma has more time before her baby is back in the hospital. Thank you Jesus for these wonderful reports and reminders that I don't have to fear for I know you have her in the palm of your hand.

  6. Hannah is so cute ! ..and yes, I also dress Maggie up when we go to the doctor. I can't help it. I can't wait to look around your blog and get caught up too.

    I make most of Maggie's clothes and then buy some at consignment stores, on line ( Remember Nguyen is one of my favorites - super cute clothes made in Vietnam and I only buy them on clearance with an additional 50 % off when they run that sale).
